The various eluents have been used for the separations of alkaline earth metals by elutions through cation exchange resin column by many investigators. We find, the mixed solution of 1M HAc and 1M NaAc (pH 4.75) is the best eluent for this purpose, becouse the one step elution through 7cm Dowex 50w${\times}$8(100~200mesh) resin column with this eluent, gives the quantitative separation. When 2M NaAc is used as a eluent Sr(II) and Ba(II) is separated easily without any contamination of Mg(II) andCa(II). The Ca-Pb alloy which is composed of Cu, Ca, Sr, Ba and abundance of Pb metal is separated quantitatively into its components by the two step elution with 0.3M HAc + 0.3M NaAc(PH 4.75) and 0.5M HAc + 0.5M NaAc(PH 4.75) as eluents through 10cm resin column.

It is shown that the impurities of Cu(II), Pb(II), Zn(II) and Ag(I) in Bismuth metal and the components of Pb(II), Zn(II) and Sn(IV) in Bismuth alloy are separated into their components from each other by elutions through $3.14cm^2{\times}10cm$ cation exchange resin, $Dowex\;50w\;{\times}\;8$ (100~200 mesh), column with the mixed solutions of HAc and NaAc as the eluents. The elution curve of Fe(III) has a long tailing and is not separated quantitatively from Bi(III). The eluents used for this separation are as follows; 1M HAc + 0.1M NaAc (pH 3.36) for Fe(III) and Bi (III). 0.3M HAc + 0.3M NaAc (pH 4.70) for Cu(II), Pb(II) and Zn(II). 0.5M HAc + 0.5M NaAc (pH4.70) for Ag(I) and Sn(IV). The analysis of cations eluted are carried out by spectrophotometry and EDTA titrimetry. Their recoveries are more than 99%.

In this study, several nickel catalysts for the steam-hydrocarbon reforming process were prepared from various nickel salt, magnesium oxide, alumina and kaolinite. The activity and strength of the catalysts were investigated. 1. The proper composition of the calcined catalysts are: NiO (5-15%)-MgO(10-20%)-$Al_2O_3$(10-40%)-Kaolinite(50-80%). 2. The admixed or cosedimented ingredients of the catalysts was pelletized and calcinated at 1000 or $1150^{\circ}C$. Calcination at $1150^{\circ}C$ for an hour was optimum. 3. The water to oil ratio (W/O) for reforming of hexane should be above 7 mole/mole. As the W/O increases, more carbon dioxide and hydrogen, but less carbon monoxide was produced. Also carbon deposition become lessen at higher W/O. 4. Maximum conversion had attained at about $850^{\circ}C$. As the reaction temperature increases, more carbon monoxide and hydrogen, but less carbon dioxide and lower hydrocarbon was produced. 5. The percent conversion at $850^{\circ}C$ was about 80%, using a catalyst which the nickel oxide content are 5%.

The possibility of the two-phase oxidation of an aldehyde to carboxylic acid was studied. Thus the ether solutions of representative aldehydes (2.0M) were treated with 1.5 mole equivalent of chromic acid solution (1.0M) for 30 minutes at room temperature. Of the ten aldehydes tested,m butanal, benzaldehyde, tolualdehyde, o-, m-, p-nitrobenzaldehyde and cinnamaldehyde could be oxidized conveniently to the corresponding carboxylic acid giving an 80-90% yield. But furfural gave only a 30% yield of furoic acid and the oxidation of salicylaldehyde was unsuccessful.

An analysis of the free amino acid contained in the plasma and erythrocytes of the six groups of Wistar Strain male adult rats (body weight 200-300g) having fasted for sixteen hours was made by means of the HITACHI Amino Acid Autoanalyzer and the result of which was corrected with RC-24B TOMY Micro Hematocrit Centrifuge. There was a depression of the plasma and erythrocytes free amino acid level on the no-protein diet with ad libitum feeding. But on the 20% casein diet there was an elevation in the levels of free amino acid and consequently alanine, glysine, lysine, serine and arginine level in the erythrocytes and threonine, glutamic acid and taurine level in the plasma increased on the high protein diet. There was more plasma and erythrocytes free amino acid level on the 5% casein- 30% fat diet than on the 5% casein-no fat diet with pair-feeding. In comparison, on the low calorie diet more free amino acids were found in plasma than in erythrocytes, but on the higher calorie diet more free amino acids were found in the erythrocytes than in the plasma. On the 20% casein-30% fat diet with pair-feeding the erythrocytes free amino acids level increased but in plasma free amino acids level decreased. Such as an opposite result was given in plasma and erythrocytes free amino acids level. In the pair-fed four groups, erythrocytes per plasma generally increased in the rate of less than 10.0 as the calorie increased. The essential amino acid per non essential amino acid generally increased in the ratio as protein level and calorie increased, and that ratio range was from 0.2 to 0.7. And essential amino acid per non essential amino acid of plasma was higher than that of erythrocytes.

Apparent molal valumes ${\phi}_v$ and relative viscosities ${\eta}_r$ of aqueous solutions of anilinium chloride have been determined at two degree intervals from 20 to $50^{\circ}C$ in the molar concentration range 0.003 < C < 0.4. The results are discussed in terms of partial molal volumes $\={V}^{\circ}$, deviations from the Debye-H$\''{u}$ckel limiting law, partial molal expansibilities $\={E}^{\circ}$, viscosity B coefficients calculated from the Jones-Dole equation, and energy of activation for viscous flow. In aqueous solution, anilinium chloride was found to be a weak structure-maker due to its hydrophobic group.

The apparent molal volumes ${\phi}_v$ of a series of homologous tetraalkylammonium chlorides, $Me_4NCl, Et_4NCl, Pr_4NCl,\;and\;Bu_4NCl$, in a series of isopropanol-water mixtures have been determined at $30^{\circ}C$ from precision density measurements using pycnometers. The values of ${\phi}_v$ extrapolated to infinite dilution give partial molal volumes $\={V}^{\circ}$s which are almost additive for successive homologues and enable one to determine the absolute individual ionic partial molal volumes. The experimental results are discussed in terrns of the varying size and surface charge of the ions and the structure of the binary solvent mixtures. The results indicate that at 0.1 mole fraction isopropanol the maximum structuredness of water causes a minimum in the tetraalkylammonium-cation partial molal volumes, while at 0.2 mole fraction the solvent structure is such that the free volumes is a minimum and the electrostrictive effect of chloride ion is a maximum.
